Limited Support for Burning Board 4.1

Burning Board 4.1 was released on March 1st, 2015 and its guaranteed support period has ended on January 11th, 2019, two years after the final release of its successor WoltLab Suite Forum 5.0. However, Burning Board 4.1 is the last supported version of the version 4 series and while the usage share is already low compared to the WoltLab Suite series, we would like to make the transition easier by providing a continued but limited support for the remaining users.
